If you are wondering about the OG AMAX class setup in Warzone Verdansk, you’ve come to the right place. The CR-56 AMAX was a fan-favorite weapon when it was originally introduced in Modern Warfare (2019), and it has now been added to Warzone with the relaunch of Verdansk after more than three years. With the right attachments, you can recreate the original AMAX that excelled in mobility and aggressive playstyles.

Once considered one of the most accurate and powerful assault rifles, the AMAX has retained its core characteristics in the current version. However, to bring back its high-mobility loadout, specific attachments are essential in Warzone.

This article will cover the OG AMAX class setup and recommended loadout attachments for the Warzone Verdansk map.

How to build the OG AMAX loadout in Warzone Verdansk

The OG AMAX build focuses on high mobility, offering a powerful setup for aggressive players. This loadout enhances sprint speed, sprint-to-fire time, damage range, and ADS speed, making it ideal for fast-paced gunfights around the map.

Recommended Build:

Muzzle: Compensator
Barrel: Long Barrel
Underbarrel: Ranger Foregrip
Rear Grip: Commando Grip
Magazine: Extended Mag

The Compensator is used to make the weapon extremely stable, reducing vertical recoil by 36% and improving gun kick. This results in a more reliable weapon that requires minimal effort to control during gunfights.

The Long Barrel increases damage range by 45%, making your shots deadlier at longer distances. This added firepower allows you to confidently take on distant fights with ease.

For the underbarrel, the Ranger Foregrip is the best choice. It further enhances gun kick control and improves horizontal recoil by 22%, making the weapon stable during sustained fire. This means it will shake less, allowing you to maintain more accuracy. Additionally, it offers a slight boost to sprint speed, making you faster on the move.

The Commando Grip improves mobility and is a key attachment for this high-speed setup. It provides a decent boost to ADS time and increases sprint-to-fire speed by 21%, making the weapon feel much quicker and more responsive in aggressive playstyles.

Finally, the Extended Mag increases the magazine size from 30 to 45 rounds. This is crucial in fast-paced fights where you’ll be constantly on the move. With more bullets per mag, you won’t need to reload as frequently and can fight confidently.
